Settlement approved to end litigation over United Rentals land-development plan

Lower Nazareth Township Board of Supervisors · April 22, 2026

Summary

After an appeal over conditional approval, the board re-adopted the conditional-approval resolution and approved a settlement to terminate litigation with United Rentals; the developer must submit a revised plan compliant with resolution terms before site work.

Solicitor Gary Asteak told the board that United Rentals had failed to accept the terms of conditional final approval within the required five days and filed an appeal. The developer later indicated willingness to accept the conditional-approval terms; the board adopted a resolution to deny the original plan earlier and then approved a settlement agreement to terminate the litigation. Vice-Chairman Martin J. Boucher moved to approve the agreement and authorize Solicitor Asteak to execute it on behalf of the township; Supervisor Stephen A. Brown seconded and the motion passed (5-0).

Asteak said the developer will be required to submit a revised land development plan that complies with the conditional-use approval and the conditions of conditional final approval before proceeding with any site improvements. The board also re-adopted Resolution #LNT-16-26 as part of the file.
